Hey Patricia and Mr the ex…I want to thank you for all the advice you give on these boards. I still come here and read from time to time and it never fails that you both are here with timely advice for individuals going through a breakup.
I don’t have much of an update. I still have the sleeping bag and he still has the keys. I did call him a couple of weeks ago and we had a good talk. We both still really care about each other and he said he has fond memories and misses me. We each even said “Love you” as we hung up. I am really hopeful I can get to a place where he and I can be friends…but I know I still need more time which is why we have not made arrangements to see each other. The good news is that I have a great community of friends who are very supportive towards me. I don’t know what the future holds but I am in a much better place then I was even a month ago. I am just so very grateful I got to spend 10.5 months with such an honest, protective, caring, kind, curious, funny, bold, innovative and handsome man. He will always have a very special place in my heart.
Thank you both again.
